Verification mail on sign-up

When you allow users to sign-up on yor seafile installation. They can enter whatever email they prefer. They can even add mailaddresses that dosen’t belong to the user since there is no verification when signing-up.

I suggest that if you set ENABLE_SIGNUP to True. And a user registrate an user account. There will be an verification mail sent to the user, asking to verify the account.

An option would be to have an setting in seahub_settings.py to enable it aswell. Like ENABLE_SIGNUP_VERIFICATION. But I would suggest to force this setting as it would secure most setups.

Thanks

Hi,

Could you explain what ENABLE_SIGNUP = True does in seahub_settings.py file, please? Is it only to send email verifications?

Thanks

#Enalbe or disalbe registration on web. Default is False.
ENABLE_SIGNUP = False

It allows users to sign up through the web interface.
